I'm pretty confused on FT's Speed stats, namely how the profiles are set up so i'd like to ask you a few questions.
1: Why is Rel not an outlier? I can understand some characters being faster than Irene's Deus Sama but that brings up issues with scaling. For starters why would Base Irene and Erza scale to the attack speed of Deus Sama? The feat was one by Dragon Irene who could
blitz a non amped Erza, her Dragon Transformation also gains a boost in speed as she was able to blitz Erza who kept up with her human form. i can understand that she "reacted" to Deus Sama but she also had a few moments to react as well as having fodder that could react to it. It just doesn't strike me as logical to have characters who are vastly inferior to Dragon Irene (I.E, characters lie Sting now being faster than an attack from Dragon Irene who previously blitzed Erza, who could keep up with Irene's human form.)
2: Why isn't the multiplier applied to MHS+?
Massively Hypersonic+ (Kept up with
Natsu and
Gajeel),
Varies with Enchantments (Wendy can increase all of her stats with Enchantments) |
Massively Hypersonic+ (Faster than before),
higher with Dragon Force (At least 4x faster than before due to Dragon Force),
Varies with Enchantments (Wendy can increase all of her stats by 2x to 4x for any of her forms with her Enchantments)
this has some issues, aka the speed multiplier not being applied directly. The value they scale to is mach 1381. Applying the 4x multiplier would be 5524. and now applying her enchants which increase her speed 2-4 times gives us a result of 22096, which is Sub-Rel. We'd end up with Sub-Rel characters long before Irene is even introduced.
now we get into issues here
Sub-Relativistic (Dodged a point blank attack from
Dimaria. Faster than a crippled and weakened Erza),
Sub-Relativistic+ with Dragon Force (At least 4x faster than before due to Dragon Force),
Varies with Enchantments (Wendy can increase all of her stats by 2x to 4x for any of her forms with her Enchantments)
let's aslo look at the issue of Irene's profile
Relativistic (Far faster than Dragon Force Wendy. Faster than an Erza who was enchanted by Wendy to be 2x faster than normal) |
Relativistic (Faster than her Base Form)
Erza's profile doesn't make note of this 2x faster stat amp, and applying it would again, change the speed ratings for the verse.
Wendy scales to 17% SoL with Dragon Force here, applying her 4x Multiplier gives us 68% SoL which is Rel+ and this isn't even getting into the Natsu stuff. Natsu's stuff.
Sub-Relativistic+ with FDKM (Comparable to Dragon Force Wendy) or Dragonization (Blitzed Animus),
Relativistic with DF (Comparable to Base Zeref),
higher with DF+FDKM (Faster than before),
far higher with SDFF (Kept up with Fairy Heart Form Zeref)
FDKM is currently accepted as a 4x increase to all stats, these stats are a mess to be honest with you, and by not applying them that's hiding the outlier of the verse having SoL to FTL speeds if we apply all the multipliers in the profiles.
